Death Is An Interval, Not the Event

I When I knew I am but space When all bodies are distilled We learn only space filled Us, with energy as interface II Death separates birth and birth We never learn this at school Ask a wave its beginning (Fool, I am, until water said "I'm first")

This poem has far deeper meanings than seen outwardly ! 'I' should die in the cleansing waters and then 'I' becomes "Us".... Great Anil !

I enjoyed your poem. Death separates birth and birth. Even when were born into the world we are (spirt) dead until we except Christ, then we are born again by the Holy Spirt. Blessings ~ Debra

you nailed it, Sis: "born again" has a better and better ring, as when Jesus told Nicodemus in John 3. shalom, shalom and THANK YOU Debra
